I'm now using a Shilke Helleberg on my YBB621. I love it very much, expecially the rim but I wish it could be bigger (Internal Diameter). Going thru the archive, my research tells me to try a Conn 7B. My question is, has the 7B the same cup shape and depth as the shilke helleberg, but with a larger ID? I have tried a wick 1L, 2L, AJ helleberg, Bobo solo and symphony, Yamaha 66 and a conn Helleberg, bach 18 and 12 and 24AW, all without success as the shilke. I really like the sound and response of the shilke on the instrument, which I attribute to the cup depth and shape.

Thanks for any input.
